doxycycline

Hi trying to figure out if I got chlamydia from my present or previous boyfriend. I took single dose of doxycycline everyday for 6 weeks during the summer. Would that have cleared a chamydia infection.

Thanks

Has your present bf been tested to know his status? if you were diagnosed as having chlamydia - he should've been treated too regardless of if he was tested or not.

No, once weekly doxy for 6 weeks wasn't adequate treatment for chlamdyia. Have you been rechecked for it since then?

Yes it could have and probably did. Why would you take it for so long?
